Daming Yuanfu

Chapter 1923 Returning to Japan ([-]) Seeking Far Away for His Son
"The plan will be released?" Gao Wushi asked.

"Remove the Busan blockade." Jiafeiji replied.

Gao Wushi remained silent, paused, and asked, "And then?"

"Master is wise." Jia Feiji showed a bright smile: "Since the Busan blockade is removed, they will naturally be transferred to Daosan."

"If that's the case, I guess you won't offer advice." Gao Wushi squinted at her with a half-smile, waved his hand and said, "Finish your words."

"Master is always so bright, it's impossible for people to show off." Jia Feiji pouted, but she still said obediently: "I want to let the Pingwa Fleet go northeast and leave Busan for Daoshan. At the same time, they sent people to closely monitor the Pusan ​​Port. If the Japanese naval forces in Pusan ​​Port were found to leave the port, they would send the Maritime Trade Alliance fleet to meet the enemy.

Sir, the fleet of the Sea Trade Alliance is not good for long-term blockade, but it is always possible to fight a decisive battle at sea, right?This is also to end the war as soon as possible. Otherwise, if such a large force is always nailed to the south, wouldn't that be a huge loss? "

Gao Wushi nodded and said: "This strategy is very good, let's do it like this."

Seeing that Gao Wushi answered without thinking, Jia Feiji became a little suspicious and said hesitantly: "Master, don't you plan to think carefully?"

"How do you know that I didn't think about it carefully?" Gao Wushi couldn't help laughing: "If I say that heroes see the same thing..."

"I don't dare to say that as a master." Jia Feiji chuckled, and said: "It's a good thing that I am not Liu Bei, otherwise I should scare off the chopsticks at this moment."

Gao Wushi smiled and said, "Liu Bei is Liu Bei...but what you say reminds me of your sister Liu. If I tell her like this, she will not be humble."

Jia Feiji blinked, and said: "Sister Liu is a heroine, she knows astronomy from the top and geography from the bottom, so she is naturally different from my concubine."

Gao Wushi smiled and didn't answer, but turned the topic back to the war, and said, "There are two obstacles in your strategy of luring the snake out of the hole, are you prepared?"

Jia Feiji immediately became serious, and said: "The two points mentioned by the master are difficult, let me guess first: the first point is how to effectively monitor the situation in Busan after the withdrawal of the Busan blockade, and how to ensure the news It can be quickly transmitted to Jinhai Xingyuan; the second point is how the alliance fleet can ensure that it can catch up with or intercept the Japanese navy sailing from Busan Port."

Gao Wushi smiled slightly: "Not bad. Since you can say these two points, you must have thought about it, so let's talk about it."

"The first point is easy to handle. There are quite a few suitable candidates among the concubine's entourage. They can pretend to be Japanese soldiers and sneak into Busan. At the same time, they also carry carrier pigeons and other things to facilitate communication with Jinhai Xingyuan."

Gao Wushi was a little surprised: "You brought the pigeons here? Can the pigeons fly from Japan to North Korea or Daming now?"

"Yes, sir, this test was carried out a few years ago, but the Ministry of Internal Affairs had no experience at that time, but later because a prostitute who was born as a Fujian fisherman was selected into the Ministry of Internal Affairs, this experiment quickly made progress.

Now it is not a problem for homing pigeons to go back and forth between Japan and Ming Dynasty. Although there is no test in North Korea, but this time it happens to be planned to be done, so I also brought more than 40 carefully selected homing pigeons this time. Taking out the distance between Busan and Gimhae will not be a problem at all. "

Gao Wushi was a little surprised and said: "I don't know that pigeons can cross the sea. What is the situation with the fishermen of the Ministry of Internal Affairs you mentioned? Why is it so helpful to the experiment of pigeons?"

Jia Feiji said: "It is said that he is a Fujian fisherman, but in fact he is just declaring to the outside world that this person was originally a servant of a Fujian merchant, who has been in charge of the carrier pigeon communication on board for that merchant for generations.

However, his father was a bad gambler and owed a large amount of gambling money to the family. In desperation, he stole a few treasures from the master's house and sold them off, and finally caused a catastrophe. As a son, he had no choice but to flee in fear of crime..."

Having said that, Gao Wushi basically understood what was going on.The Fujian sea merchant Jia Feiji mentioned was a generation of pirates, but he must have an official status, and at least he was a local tycoon. The father of this family member stole the family heirloom of the pirate leader and sold it, so there is still good fruit to eat?The so-called "destroying a corpse into ten thousand pieces" is probably not just an angry statement.

As for how this person "jumped" to Gao's family in the end, Gao is not interested in knowing such details, because the review by the Ministry of Internal Affairs is extremely strict, and Gao Mo is not the only person in charge. After a round of screening, Gao Mo and other "three joint trials" can join the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Therefore, since he can join the Ministry of Internal Affairs, his identity and past must have been separated.

As for why the pirate leader kept pigeons on board, Gao Wushi also asked later.In fact, it is very simple to put it bluntly: the owner of the ship who travels far at sea has a long tradition of raising pigeons.

The original mission of these pigeons was not actually "messaging", but to some extent "reporting mourning"-an accident at sea caused the ship to sink, and the boatman would release these pigeons. Once the pigeons fly back home , which means that the people on board cannot come back.

As for whether the carrier pigeon can go back and forth between Daming and Japan, there is no problem at all. For example: On June 2013, 6, the Worker’s Daily reported that a Japanese racing pigeon participated in the competition in May of that year and flew over because of getting lost. 28 kilometers, actually arrived in Vancouver, Canada.

It is much farther from Japan to Vancouver than to Daming. For example, the straight-line distance from Misaki City to the capital of Daming is about 2100 kilometers, which is far less than flying to Vancouver.And if it is to fly from Misaki City to Chaonan Gimhae and the vicinity of Busan, where Gao Pragmatic Economics and Strategy is now located, it is even only 1000 kilometers.

According to the flying speed of homing pigeons, it can fly about 100 kilometers in one hour, which is enough for half a day.Of course, in addition to the frequency of flapping wings, the speed of the pigeon is more important, which is the time of circling and judging, as well as the return route.

After taking off, the pigeons circle up to find the direction of return. You can know the situation of the pigeons after watching the TV broadcast. And some pigeons hovered over the boat for half an hour and could not decide the direction, which was half an hour behind the starting point.

As we all know, the shortest distance between two points is a straight line. Reports from later generations abroad say that pigeons often do not fly back in a straight line, but on a curved route, and only a very small number of them fly a straight line between two points.

This also means that pigeons with good direction judgment can not only find the direction of return, but also grasp the most "straight" route between the loft and the loft. On the return route, even if there is headwind or crosswind If there is no interference, they can still fly by the shortest route.

Gao Pragmatically estimated that this should be the guidance of magnetic field lines, that is to say, maybe every pigeon can judge the direction by the sun's inclination angle, environmental feature memory, and smell, but judging by magnetic field lines is not every pigeon's strong point .

Some pigeons have strong senses, while others have weak senses. Some people say that good pigeons do not distinguish between seasons and terrains. Perhaps this phenomenon can be clearly explained by the magnetic force lines.The reason why Jinghua’s carrier pigeons always have to prepare a lot is because a lot of pigeons will be eliminated in the selection process-of course, this elimination is classified according to the distance they have to fly. For example, some pigeons are not good at flying long distances and will be wasted. It takes a lot of time to find a way, but if you fly a short distance or some routes that are not so time-sensitive, it is still useable, and it will be useless if it is not eliminated.

All in all, with the manpower provided by Kai Fei Ji, liaison officers carrying carrier pigeons can be sent to the Japanese army in Busan. Since Jia Fei Ji said that these people are suitable for sneaking into Busan, it naturally means that they are Japanese and it is not easy to reveal their secrets.

However, there is still a problem here. Gao Yushi said: "It may not be difficult to just sneak into Busan, but since they carry carrier pigeons, if their status is too low, then how can they hide?"

"Isn't the Shimadzu family still in Busan?" Jia Feiji said with a smile: "Once the samurai and ninjas under my concubine go to Busan, they will naturally be affiliated with Shimadzu Yoshihiro's fifth army. From the standpoint of the Shimadzu family, it shouldn’t be a problem to arrange a few mid-level and lower-level officers, right?”

Gao Wushi was very pleased, nodded and said: "Since you have considered it so thoroughly, then you will be responsible for this matter."

"Yes, master, I must do my best."

"Then what about the second obstacle?" Gao Wushi asked again.

"The second point is actually easier to handle." Jiafeiji laughed: "Where can the Japanese navy go to sea from Busan? I think there are only two choices: either to support Daoshan, or to escape back to Japan.

Supporting Daoshan is nothing to worry about, as long as the Pingwa fleet pays attention to the possibility of Japanese naval forces following and attacking.As for escaping back to Japan, the distance is far or near. As long as the alliance fleet gets the news in a timely manner, it will not be difficult to catch up with them—after all, the main force of the Japanese navy is equipped with iron armor. "

Gao Yushi thought about it and felt that there was nothing wrong with this plan, so he immediately made a decision and arranged for someone to issue his military order to all parties.

After talking about these official matters, Gao Wushi was hesitant to speak, and Jia Feiji knew what the master was going to say at a glance, and she took the initiative to ask: "Does the master want to talk about acting?"

"Well, this matter..." Gao Wushi seemed a little embarrassed to talk about it.

But Jia Feiji said: "Actually, I don't object to this matter."

"Ah, is that so?" Gao Wushi was obviously taken aback, looked at Jia Feiji carefully before continuing to ask: "Why?"

"This kind of thing is very common in Japan. As long as the Tokugawa family really appoints Yaner as the governor, from the concubine's point of view, it is not a bad thing for Yaner." Kai Ji's answer was unusually calm, or calm.

At this moment, Gao Wushi was suddenly blessed, and suddenly understood what Jia Feiji meant.

Gao Yan is not the first son, nor even the eldest son.The sixth house of the Gao family has the eldest son, so according to the rules and traditions of Ming Dynasty, all the "inheritance" of Gao Yuan belongs to Gao Yuan alone, and Gao Yuan has no role to play at all.

This also means that if Gao Yuan treats this concubine brother well in the future, he may be able to arrange a good job for him, but at most that's all, it is basically impossible to give him a share of the inheritance.

However, what if Gao Yan became the adopted son of Ieyasu Tokugawa and was made the governor of the family?Then we have to follow the Japanese tradition.In other words, the main foundation of the Tokugawa family will belong to Gao Yan.

According to the current situation that Kai Ji knows, his master is likely to conquer Japan after the death of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, but due to the characteristics of Japan, he will most likely support Tokugawa Ieyasu to become the general who conquers barbarians.In other words, Gao Yan will become the shogun of Japan in the future.

Even if according to the worst possible judgment, Gao Yan's shogun is essentially the spokesperson of the Gao family, or even a puppet general, but so what?At least the blood of the Gao family was shed on him. According to the traditions of the Ming Dynasty, Japan at that time would at least be a reliable "land of the clan". Much stronger.

The worst outcome is nothing more than that Japan will eventually be directly ruled by the Gao family, but because of Gao Yan's identity and blood, Gao Yuan has to arrange for him a future that surpasses other younger brothers, right?Therefore, Jia Feiji believes that Gao Yan's adoption as Tokugawa Ieyasu's adopted son actually avoids a lot of troubles between his concubines and obtains the greatest benefit in terms of his status.

However, Gao Yushi wants to understand, but he knows that Jia Feiji's idea is actually not well understood by himself-of course, when it comes to the issue of children's arrangements, Gao Yushi's thoughts are actually unknown to everyone, even Liu Xin does not know. How does Gao Pragmatic think.

Gao Wushi thought to himself: Since Jia Feiji misunderstood, then it is not a bad thing to be misunderstood.

"I understand what you mean." Gao Wushi nodded and said, "You are very considerate of the overall situation, which is good. As for Yan'er...he will have good arrangements for his future, so you don't have to worry about it."

"Yes, what the master says is what he says, and the concubine was not worried at all."

Well, this sentence is very "Yamato Nadeko", but Gao Yushi was very satisfied, nodded and said: "You have also read the conditions I put forward to Tokugawa Ieyasu, do you have anything to add?"

"No more." Jia Feiji shook her head and said, but hesitated a little after finishing speaking, and said again: "If Jia Kanggong becomes a general in the future, I wonder how many times a year I can see Yaner?"

"See you if you want." Gao Wushi narrowed his eyes slightly, and said, "Ieyasu Tokugawa is so smart that he wouldn't be a hindrance to such a matter. He has always been a person who can distinguish priorities."

Jia Feiji was completely relieved, knelt down and said: "For the sake of Yan'er's future, what's the point of not seeing him a few times now? Master, the matter of acting as my concubine is all up to me."

Gao Wushi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he stretched out his hand to support her, and said, "He is also my son, you should not be begging me."

"Yes, yes, I know my mistake." Jia Feiji took a deep breath, straightened up and sat down again.

Gao Wushi was about to speak, when the outside servant reported that Li Rumei had sent a private letter, and the messenger's account could only be opened by the cabinet minister himself.Gao Wushi had no choice but to suspend the conversation and ordered: "Submit."
